About the job
About Physical Intelligence
At Physical Intelligence, we are pioneering a future where AI-driven robots become an integral part of our daily lives. Visualize a robot capable of folding your laundry, preparing your meals, and organizing your surroundings. Envision robots in warehouses efficiently managing packages, or manufacturing robots that can seamlessly adapt to new products without requiring reprogramming. We are dedicated to turning this vision into reality by developing general-purpose AI that empowers robots to execute any physical task.
Our diverse team of engineers, scientists, and roboticists is creating foundational models—the same innovative technology that powers ChatGPT—but tailored for the physical realm. Just as language models are trained on vast datasets to understand and produce text, our robots learn to engage with the physical world through high-quality demonstration data.
The Role: Powering the AI Revolution
As a Robot Operator, you will play a crucial role in data collection, the essential fuel that drives our mission. Each robot movement and every successful task completion you facilitate contributes to teaching our AI systems how to interact with the physical world. You will not only operate robots but also be instrumental in training the AI that will usher in the next generation of intelligent machines.
Engage with advanced robotic systems and generate high-quality training data necessary for our models. Your precise demonstrations will guide our AI in mastering everything from delicate manipulation tasks to intricate multi-step processes. This is your opportunity to directly influence technology that will reshape how robots assist humans in homes, workplaces, and beyond.
What You'll Do
Primary Responsibilities
- Teleoperate robotic arms through various tasks using our user-friendly control systems.
- Lead robot movements with your actions (the robot mirrors your gestures) or guide robots using specialized controllers.
- Execute a range of tasks from household chores like folding laundry to complex assembly operations.
- Ensure high standards for data quality and consistency across all demonstrations.
- Achieve set metrics for data collection volume and quality during your shifts.
Important Note: This is a metrics-driven role where you will be expected to meet specific data collection targets throughout your shift. The work involves repetitive task execution, making the quality of data collection critical for our AI training success.
